Looking for advice on whether I should have more lipo done on my flanks and backside to create a better silhouette. I've done lipo twice now because the first doctor made a mess of my ab area and threw off my proportions to my side and back...the second doctor tried to revise the ab areas and remove the excess of my side n back and inject into buttocks but the fat did not hold around the left hip n I think the fullness of my butt has gone down & I still feel it is not soft and smooth. I'm looking for a doctor who is a perfectionist and uses smaller cannulas to fix the problems. After the 2nd surgery, I had carbotherapia which even though not spoken well of it has done wonders for the lumpiness on my ab area and toned the quality of my skin...but it doesn't melt enough of the fat where I would like it to be super smooth. Im 5'2 ..116lbs..i work out by doing pilates and pure barre..43 now. Doctors please let me know..Ive had some doctors suggest a tummy tuck..I don't think I need that yet despite my loose skin...other doctors say no there is not enough skin..

Liposuction alone seldom fixes a bad liposuction result. I would suggest our Hidef Liposuction Revision Protocol which includes lipocavitation, liposculpture, fat grafting, fibrous release, and Exilis skin tightening. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
